Geopolitics and the cyber resilience gap belong in your threat model

An interview with the World Economic Forum's head of cybersecurity discusses findings from the Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2026, highlighting that executives now prioritize cyber-enabled fraud over ransomware as their top security concern. The discussion covers widening resilience gaps between large and small organizations, regional disparities, and the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), geopolitics, and industrialized fraud in evolving cyber risk.

Why it matters: Chief executives and security leaders need to reassess threat models to reflect fraud as a primary business concern, while organizations should evaluate their resilience posture relative to competitors and regions to identify capability gaps.
